A great opportunity for a very powerful box in small-size factor which is now on sale only for $56.99 / €49.74 / £44.03by using the discount coupon GBM8SDDR4 and with free world-wide shipping included! We are talking about the MINI M8S PRO, powered by the Octa-core S912 64bit CPU by Amlogic, an ARM Mali-T820MP3, 3 GB of DDR4 RAM and 32GB of internal storage. And yes, you read correctly, it comes with DDR4 memory so it promises faster access times, meaning even faster performance!

The exterior of the device is one of the most loved designs in the TV Box world. Plain dark grey / black plastic box it is very similar to the Beelink Mini but with an upgraded feel. There is no power button on the device for a minimal design choice, the device is powered on from the remote or as soon as you plug it in for the first time. The connectivity of the Mini M8S PRO is not the usual “Mini”. Comes with 2 X USB 2.0, an HDMI 2.0, an optical SPDIF output, 1 X Fast Ethernet and 1 X SD Card Slot and the DC in. The little beast also comes with Dual Band WiFi 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz for maximum speeds even when wireless and of course with internal antenna. The Bluetooth version is v 4.0.

Nice surprise has also been the default launcher. Not bad at all and very easy to use. The Mini M8S PRO is driven by Android version 7.1 Nougat which also guarantees that is KODI 17 / KODI 18 compatible so if you are looking for a future proof device, with this one you are also covered. The already pre-installed Google Play Store gives you access to all the latest applications and games on Android and if you love gaming, make sure to get a good gamepad so you can enjoy it fully.

The MINI M8S PROtends to get hot sometimes but without any real-life issues. I didn’t notice any hiccups or reboots. Overall with the discounted price it is a very good solution for someone who wants an excellent KODI 17.6 device and maybe do also some causal gaming every now and then. The 32GB are more than enough for gaming and remember you can always use the SD Card as well. With the coupon GBM8SDDR4 you can get it for just $56.99 / €49.74 / £44.03.More info and in order to buy: https://www.gearbest.com/211766804,211766805,211766806-_gear/?lkid=13138582

One of the best performing TV Box right now which did really impress me is the R99 TV Box. And now you can still get it on a coupon sale for the lower price online: $116.99 / €97.00 / £85.87and free world-wide shipping by using the coupon DimR99! You can also watch my video review by clicking here.

Starting with the aesthetics of the device, the R99 comes with an excellent aluminum case which gives two advantages: a luxury, beautiful device that will get a lot of attention and most imprortantly, an always cool device even under high stress. Before getting into the specs of the device we should also note that comes with an excellent WiFi remote. No more struggle to get the remote in a perfect straight line with the device to control it, the included USB dongle will take care of the connection between the two devices perfectly, even for the power function.

Powered by a RK3399 Chip 64bit Dual ARM Cortex-A72 Big-core + Quad ARM Cortex-A53 Small-core CPU (Hexacore) it is a benchmark monster. The it is completed by a Mali-T860 GPU, 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. On the left side of the device there is a port which works as the WiFi antenna, the on board Dual Band WiFi b/g/n/ac is one of the best I have ever come upon in speed and strength signal.

On the right side of the R99 TV Box we find also a part of the curved LED indicator, a micro SD Card slot, a type-C USB 3.1, a USB 2.0 and a USB 3.0. Moving to the back of the device we find a LAN / Ethernet 1GB port, an optical SPDIF output, HDMI 2.0 for real 4K at 60fps resolution and the DC 5V input.

Powered by Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 for now, comes pre-installed with the Google Playstore from where you can install any application you want, including the latest version of KODI 18 or the stable version 17.6. Both perform brilliantly, no lags or issues of any kind, even on 4K. And as a personal note, my personal preference is that the Rockchip CPU’s have better colors when decoding a video file compared to the Amlogic CPU’s. I would only recommend you uninstall the KODI fork version that comes already with the device and install KODI from Google Playstore instead for better performance.

Speaking of performance, the device confirms the monstrous benchmark results. Multi-tasking and even gaming is a pleasure with the R99 TV Box. It is one of the few devices which will let you enjoy games on high profiles with great fps. Everything is snappy, fast and changing between opened apps like from a game to a media player is almost instant.

Now you can get the Xiaomi MI Android TV (Official International Version)on a coupon sale for the low price of just $66.99 / €55.54 / £49.17and with free world-wide shipping by using the discount coupon TOPCXM3. It is one of the best Android TV devices you can get right now with great quality and excellent performance. Running on Android TV OS comes with a unique, small in size design and an excellent remote control with voice control. Of course the design similarities with the Apple TV, the Amazon Fire TV and the NVIDIA Shield TV can not pass unnoticed but that is exactly the selling point of this device by Xiaomi. A direct competitor to those streaming devices, with no restrictions and with a very interesting price!

Spec-wise the Xiaomi Mi Android TV may not seem what you exactly expect from a top Android TV Box. Quad-core Cortex-A53 CPU clocked at 2.0Ghz, a Penta-core Mali 450 GPU, 2GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage. But everything combined together work absolutely in perfect synch. In fact it is one of the smoothest Android TV devices in the range of under $100 whether you just want to use it as a Media Center or in order to play games! It also supports Dual Band WiFi b/g/n/ac with an internal antenna, an HDMI 2.0 port for real 4K at 60 frames per second, an optical / SPDIF output, 1 X USB 2.0 port and an AV port in case you have an older TV or a projector.

The included bluetooth remote control is fantastic. It has built-in voice commands so you remote control the Xiaomi Mi Android TV just by talking to it, a feature that only some devices have like the NVIDIA Shield and the Amazon Fire TV. Also being a Bluetooth remote is also much better and more than the necessary in order to control every aspect of your device. The included AAA batteries is also something we are not used to see in most devices on the market.

Also when using KODI 17.6 the Xiaomi Mi Android TV performs in an exceptional way. Everything works as it should and even on 4K playback at 60 frames per second the device didn’t experience any kind of problems, just flawless playback! The forth-coming version of KODI Leia 18 is also supported and although it is not out officially yet, it has also a great performance on the device. When playing Android games you will also enjoy your experience and since you have unlimited access to the Google’s Android TV Play Store dedicated section with tons of fantastic titles to choose from, combined also to a Xiaomi Gamepad (sold separately but in my opinion is also one of the best gamepads for an Android TV Box or Firestick) you will get top gaming experience! Netflix is also fully supported meaning you will get the best possible quality, unlike most of the other devices in the market.

The big success of the Amazon Fire TV Stick is mostly because of the small, compact size. Alfawise has also released a similar to the Fire TV Stick device but it comes with the most powerful Amlogic CPU, the Octa-core S912 64bit. It is the H96 PRO TV Dongle and it sales for just $41.99 / €34.82 / £30.82 on a limited flash sale. Small in size but great in performance!

The H96 PRO TV Dongle comes with a gold platted HDMI and a black glossy case. Unlike the Fire TV Stick by Amazon we also find more connectivity ports: Sd Card for expansion of the internal memory storage, 2 X USB ports, an LED indicator that changes color depending on the operation of the device, and a micro USB for powering the device! The total weight if the device is less than 200g. Unlike the promising for connecting it to any USB port to power it up, that is not the case. While it will work on a TV, on a projector the current may not be enough to power the device as it requires a 5V port to make this powerful stick to work.

The specs, other that the amazing Octa-core S912 CPU, are an ARM Mali T820-Mp3 HPU, 2GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage. Disappointing the fact that they did not include the ac module and as such the device supports b/g/n WiFi. Nevertheless the WiFi is fast enough and has a great performance even on 4K streaming content. But I would love to see that little too much in such a small device as well. Lastly but not leastly, also supports Bluetooth 4.1 + EDR.

Powered by Android 7.1.1 Nougat the possibilities of the H96 PRO TV Dongle are endless. With the pre-installed Google Playstore you can install any application or game you want, even the latest releases and also the latest version of KODI 17.6 and KODI 18 that runs in a flawless way. 4K reproduction of any video is also great, thanks to the already qualified CPU and GPU that can play up to 4K video files in 60 frames per second. I was genuinely very impressed by the performance!

TVaddons came up with a new way of installing the greatest and latest addons for Kodi in 2018. Or not? Is this really a good and safe way to install addons on Kodi?

In this video I am gonna explain to you why I will not use this method and why you should stay away or pay a lot of attention when you use this new method by TVaddons. Sometimes the intention may be good but not always it works as it should.
